I talked a bit last week about how my skin reacts to the cooler months when I shared my winter survival kit. It gets dry and itchy and a little difficult to manage. My face can be very similar in the winter months, so today I am sharing my daily skin care routine, and how I combat skin issue as we change seasons.
I start out with Dickinson’s Original Witch Hazel NEW Daily Refreshingly Clean Cleansing Cloths. I use these to take off my eye makeup and also remove any dirt and oil from my face before I wash it. I am obsessed with these. Dickinson’s Original WitchHazel is gentle enough to use daily to help remove excess dirt, oil, and makeup, even on sensitive skin, as it won’t strip skin of essential moisture. Additionally, its toning properties will help minimize the appearance of pores, eliminate oil & shine and nourish even flaky, dull skin. It’s soap and fragrance-free and doesn’t leave sticky residue. All pluses in my opinion!
Next, I wash my face with Neutrogena Foaming Face Wash. For someone with sensitive skin, this is a godsend. My dermatologist actually told me to use it a few years ago when my skin was having some issues. Since then I have been loyal and use this twice a day (sometimes more).
After my face is all fresh and clean, I use the Neutrogena Hydro Boost to moisturize. I got a sample of this in a Target Beauty Box earlier this year, and since have been a huge fan. It’s very moisturizing and cooling. It feels amazing on my skin. I love the way it also helps prep my face for makeup, if it’s a makeup day for me. Which honestly, most days are not.
Lastly, I use the First Aid Beauty detox eye roller under my eyes to cool and repair my dark circles and redness.
I use the Dickinson’s Original WitchHazel On-The-Go Refreshingly Clean Towelettes daily as well. However, these I use throughout the day to refresh my face. I use them a lot post workout (perfect for the gym bag) and some times if my face just needs a boost. The gentle spun lace cloth helps extract trapped dirt & oils, tones, and refreshes skin leaving no sticky residue behind. The small size is convenient to travel with and bring anywhere – the home, office, beach, sporting events and gym. I am telling you, just keep some in your purse or car. They are perfect!
I don’t do anything crazy with my skin, but these steps twice a day have really kept my skin from getting too dry, red, or problematic.
What is your daily skin care routine?
Make sure to check out Dickinson’s on social media!
I have been using Dickinson’s witch hazel but not the cleansing wipes!! I’ll give them a try b/c I’ve been using Trader Joe’s tea tree oil cleansing pads but they are wicked strong! It makes my eyes water!! lol. I have to try the Neutragena hydroboost gel too! =)
Will check out the Neutrogena moisturizer – my skin completely dries up in the winter! I’m intrigued by the eye roller as well – where did you find it?
You know my mom religiously wiped her face with witch hazel every morning and now they come in a nice packet I must get some . I still go old school with a cotton ball.
im always interested in other’s skincare routines. thanks for sharing. have you ever used the simple micellar water? that’s what i use every morning! so refreshing on my face.
I was so disappointed in the smell of those wipes because I’ve heard such great things about them! But I literally couldn’t stomach them they were so strong!
Neutrogena is hands down the best drugstore skincare line! I have gone to a more natural skincare line that is sold in Whole Foods. I use derma e products. They are amazing!
Just coming to your page and had to say this is a killer skin routine and I am a fan of all those products! Love the how-to breakdown you’ve given me, I think I will start following your procedure XOXO

Does your skin have any reactions to make-up?

I’m obsessed with wipes of any kind, so I must give these a try. Are they OK to use on the skin around your eyes? That’s my most sensitive area.
I have heard good things about Dickinson’s.
I need to try it for myself.

Your blog is beautiful! Love the First Aid brand.
